Microsummaries
I downloaded Firefox 2 this weekend, but haven’t done too much with it. Tonight, I was looking at the Firefox 2 for Developers and saw a very promising feature: Microsummaries. Rather than me try and explain them, I’ll let Mozilla:
Microsummaries are regularly-updated short summaries of web pages. They are compact enough to fit in the space available to a bookmark label, they provide more useful information about pages than static page titles, and they get regularly updated as new information becomes available.
I am sure I will try them out before next season rolls around, but microsummaries will be perfect for The Bet site. If microsummaries could read cookies it would open the door for unlimited uses, but a quick search around the site and it doesn’t look like cookies are accessible. As time goes on, I’m sure people will come up for some great uses of this pretty neat new feature.
Good info.! Firefox is great, it works like a champ. Is there a way to force a page to respond to Firefox entries when it has been coded to only respond to Explorer browser pages?
